The Eastern Pearl brings to Buffalo it's first gourment Cantonese Restaurant! The Cantonese Province of China is actually called Guangdong and is located in the southern part of China along the sea.
Traditional Cantonese chefs feel the flavors of a finished dish should be well balance, never satiating or greasy. In addition, spices are used in approptiate amounts so the fresh and fine qualities of the ingredients are not overwhelmed.
The foods are sometimes divided into two groups, Yin and Yang. Yin are "cooling foods" such as crab, watercress and cucumber associated with femininity, while Yang are the "heating foods" such as beef, carrots and chilies, associated with masculinity. The people of Guangdong are known for their longevity of life which a healthy diet is of course an important factor!
Our desire is to serve you the fresh wonderful flavores of the traditional Cantonese cuisine. We also shall be serving many of our other Chinese favorites in the highest quality. Come, Experience, and Enjoy!
